legion. Turbans, sailor hats, toques and
all kinds of natty round forms are seen all
over, and there are also hats whose brims
circle around the heads of their wearers at
distance of eighteen inches, in many fan
tastic curves.
Ginghams and seersuckers are among
the fabrics which are used for country
dresses at present, and they certainly af-
ford very good service where rough usage
is in question. Odd though il may seem,
the cheaper kinds OF lace are much used in
trimming these costumes.
A charming dress recently noticed was in
cream nuns yelling, made with a close
fitting basque, the trimming of which con-
sisted of two parallel jabots of lace, ar
ranged very gracefully. Between these
the garment was fastened, and the buttons
consisted of small spheres of pearl. The
tablier in front was gathered into folds be-
meath the edge of the basque, causing
somewhat fan-like aspect around the
edges. On one side, running'f from the hip
down, was double jabot of lace to the
foot of the skirt; the whole forming dress
which, for its freshness and beauty, could
scarcely be rivaled. 1t would be very APP
proprfate for wear, with fitting accessories,
ut the seaside, where these pale tints and
light, gauzy materials are most affected.
Not for years has the parasol been so
important an accessory TO woman's toilet
as we find ii this season. Much ingenuity

But the evening cometh and he hath no

In the privacy of his attic he feasteth on

The company will be in Gardiner on June
2Oth. under the management of j. NJ. Wall.
The recent freshet was not without Its
fluctuations for humanity, parsons, even, not
excepted. Last Sabbath well known cler-
gyman of this city, who breaches in neigh
boring town. started out in the afternoon to
attend to his duties. He had reached point
several miles out of the city, when he came
TO bridge which was overtiowe ed about foot
in depth by the water which had backed up
from an adj AGENT pond. Upon coming to this
the horse stopped short and refused to move
a step in advance and no urging would cause
the animal TO bulge one inch. The plucky
man OF the clo;h was not to be thwarted il
this manner but coolly removed his shoes
and stockings, rolled up his pants, and wade q
across the bridge, leading his horse. He wa:
cautioned afterwards that he might take cold
but we have seen him on the street since ant
he appears to be in the fash of health.
